“Brookings Inn strikes me as a practical choice, particularly appealing to families with its indoor waterpark; the on-site Mexican restaurant is also a nice perk. While the hotel is near the Swiftel Center, making it great for event attendees, what stood out to me was the kind night staff. For a no-fuss stay with a few convenient amenities, it's certainly a contender.”
